About Shirley

Experience: 3 yrs

I'd describe my personality as Kind, Outgoing and Happy I like working with kids because I am a mom. Working with children ensures each day will be a unique adventure because kids are exciting and unpredictable. Helping children (and their families) is the most rewarding job I can think of! Children motivate me to be a better person. I'm looking for a job that can challenge me to learn and develop new skills. In terms of company culture, I am looking for a positive, supportive environment that fosters collaboration, open communication and mutual trust and respect. I started working with kids when my oldest daughter was born 13 years ago. In my spare time, I like to take the kids to the park, go to the movies, go for a walk. One thing you should know about me is I am a mom. I love kids! And have tons of patience! My skills include patience, good communication, listening, compassion, multi tasker, fast learner.

Shirley was with our family for close to a year. During that time, she was wonderful to our two children! She was very punctual and was always very quick to respond to any calls or texts. She kept our kids' safety as top priority and loved them like they were her own. We would definitely hire her again!
